What to check before ordering integrity fire glass in Kendal
Where integrity glass fits
Integrity-only glass may be acceptable in some fire-resisting partitions, screens and doors, often at high level, within the limits national guidance sets. Compartment walls normally need insulating (EI) glazing.
Cost advantage
Integrity glass costs a fraction of insulated glass and fits slimmer frames, which is why specifying it correctly matters.
Not insulating
E glass gets hot in a fire. Furniture or stored materials beside it can ignite from radiated heat.
